RETIREMENT:
I've been away from my blog for a long-long
time but I’m back. A lot has happened in these past four years, the most note
worthy is- I’m now RETIRED! Completely! No job, just living on retirement
benefits and SS. How great is that?
GRANDBABY: Actually, the most note worthy has to be our number ten grandson, Mitch Colton Johnson. We love our Mitch.
RIDING:
About four months ago I sold my Honda VTX
motorcycle (yeah, I ride a motorcycle). But I thought I was done, so I sold it.
But it only took a few warm sunny days for me to get the bug again. Pictured is my new ride, a 2009 BMW GS. It is much more comfortable then the Honda
and, for some weird reason, it is more fun to ride. I put over 13K miles
on the VTX but never really went anywhere; I always knew it would not be a bike
I would take on a long trip. But this GS is made for travel and I can tell I
will take it on some long adventures, at least I hope so. I’ll keep you updated.

Bye-bye Honda
PUPPY:
Well, when you retire what's the first thing
you need to do (besides getting a motorcycle)? If you guessed get a dog-you're
right. We got a puppy, he's Eddie. He will be a year old on July 28, 2013. He's
very attachable and smart. He gets more treats then I do and lives a great
life, I should have such a life.

I finished my second book titled “Spirit of an
Angel.” It’s not published and probably never will be, needs a lot of editing
(anyone out there that would like to edit it for me let me know). I admit I’m
not a writer but I do enjoy doing it and will continue no matter what others
may think. When I first started this blog (see below posts) I put some excerpts
from it here, I will start doing that again.Vietnam
That’s it for now. I will keep posting about
my retirement, my writing and my riding. Hope to see you along the way.
Hi Mom, happy mothers day. Miss you, it's been five years...
